One of my biggest interest in yacht design is program layout. How can one create more layered and flexible spaces? Yacht designers only have so much room to work with, so it is critical that we think creatively about how one creates double or even triple programmed spaces. In this case we have the certified helicopter deck of Stella Maris but when not in use it turns into a luxurious sun deck or swimming area. It can even host up to 100 people for dinner seating.
A perfect example of layering uses of space.
